The border is composed of repeating engine-turned rosette and tulip-head motifs in dark olive ink, enclosing an inner frame of fine lathe-work. A large symmetrical guilloche medallion occupies the centre of the field, above which the denomination 'VEERTIG' and below which 'GULDEN' are printed in bold green letters. The series letter 'B' and serial number appear in the lower portion, flanked by two five-pointed star perforations. Columns of small-print anti-counterfeiting legal text in Dutch run vertically along both side margins.
